I had great plans last night for a complete panorama from The Pleiades thru Comet Wirtanen 46P. The weather cooperated for The Pleiades but went down hill from there. Cloud sorta destroyed my comet results and made capturing the remaining pieces of the panorama impossible. But Starry Night Pro to the rescue...

Using an ATIK Color Horizon camera, William Optics 0.8x focal reducer/flattener on a Stellarvue 60mm scope. Unguided on a Celestron AVX mount.

Comet: 25x30sec., The Pleiades: 25x30sec, 2x2 binned
